Unity's Friends with Flair 5.16.14 Mother's Day cards

Mother's Day is a reflective time for me as I am sure it is for all moms. I know it is a day to honor moms but without the kids.......well, you know.

I am lucky to have had my four children and most of their spouses and my granddaughter with me for the day. They cooked and chatted and gave me a gift that brings tears to my eyes! They gave me a plane ticket to visit my sister who is struggling right now. They knew it was what I really wanted and needed. So thoughtful. I am so happy that they are all friends (there were days when they were young that I would have bet they would never be close!) and live within an hour of each other.

I made them Mother's Day cards!

They made me a good mom. They weathered the challenges of growing up. And I am so proud of the adults that they have become.

I used Unity's Itty Bitty "You Make Me Happy" stamp. The words are lyrics from a song that was an anthem in our car when the children were little "You Are My Sunshine"

Lovely cards. What a great tribute to your children. You are so fortunate to have adult children who care and are close to you. What a great gift so you can see your sister. Enjoy your trip. You deserve it.
